morning star
Storytelling genius Haggard leads readers into the ancient past in the gripping historical novel Morning Star. Set in Egypt thousands of years ago, the tale follows the plight of a princess whose claim to the throne has been challenged. But this girl is not your typical damsel in distress. Will she be able to prevail over the usurpers who are clamoring for power?
Say rather against two gods. for with the Star of Amen goes the Star of Hathor, Queen of Love. Not for many periods of thousands of years have they been together. but now they draw near to each other. and so will remain for all your life.
An evil influence is at work in your House of Life. Another star crosses and recrosses your path and though for a long time you seem to swallow it up yet at the last it eclipses you.
The astrologer continued his prophecy for the prince of Egypt. Amen and Hathor are against you. See where they eat you up yes. yonder over the Valley of Dead Kings, though twenty years' and more must go by ere then. And take this for your comfort: during those years you shine alone.
As they watched the Eastern Horizon a faint rosy glow melted and there in the pure heavens lying just where it met the distant land, seeming to rest upon the land. appeared a bright and beautiful star, and so close to that to the eye they almost touched. a twin star. For a few minutes, only they were seen; then they vanished beneath the line of the horizon.
